Puppet/CloudStack Use
Hey all,
Speaking at a PuppetCamp next week in Sydney and I would like to hear
about how folks are using CloudStack and Puppet together.
If you're using both, please drop me a line (offlist) and let me know
what you're doing, and whether it's OK to cite you/your company
specifically.
Thanks!
Joe

Damned Thunderbird, "Reply" seems to do the same thing as "Reply-list".
Sorry :-)

Hi Joe,
We just started to build out our CloudStack clusters, but we use Puppet
to provision our hypervisors.
We're not doing super fancy stuff, but we are just making sure
configuration is consistent on all Ubuntu Hypervisors and all the
required packages are installed on all machines.
We generate a agent.properties file on the hypervisor and do not require
cloud-setup-agent (which I hate) to add a new hypervisor to the
management server. We just provision the hypervisor and it adds itself
to the mgmt server.
Still, nothing really fancy, just basic Puppet.
My hosting company's name is "PCextreme B.V." from The Netherlands and
you can find us on: https://www.pcextreme.com/
You may cite me if you want to. I'm CTO at our company. We run a couple
of thousand virtual machines, they are KVM, but not CloudStack (yet),
we're migrating to CloudStack. We have somewhere around 40.000 customers.
